Subject: [PATCH] dtc: create tool to diff device trees
Date: Thu, 31 Dec 2015 01:12:30 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5684F17E.6060209@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sonymobile.com>
Create script to diff device trees.
The device tree can be in any of the forms recognized by the dtc compiler:
- source
- binary blob
- file system tree (from /proc/devicetree)
If the device tree is a source file, then it is pre-processed in the
same way as it would be when built in the linux kernel source tree
before diffing.

---
Tools to develop and debug device tree are somewhat inadequate. This is a
small step in improving the situation.
Rationale for and examples of using the script are provided in slides
1 - 78 of the elce 2015 presentation "Solving Device Tree Issues",
which can be found at:
http://elinux.org/images/0/04/Dt_debugging_elce_2015_151006_0421.pdf
(The script was named dtdiff instead of dtx_diff in the presentation.)

+
+Usage:
+
+ `basename $0` DTx
+ decompile DTx
+
+ `basename $0` DTx_1 DTx_2
+ diff DTx_1 and DTx_2
+
+
+ -f print full dts in diff (--unified=99999)
+ -h synonym for --help
+ -help synonym for --help
+ --help print this message and exit
+ -s SRCTREE linux kernel source tree is at path SRCTREE
+ (default is current directory)
+ -S linux kernel source tree is at root of current git repo
+ -u unsorted, do not sort DTx
+
+
+Each DTx is processed by the dtc compiler to produce a sorted dts source
+file. If DTx is a dts source file then it is pre-processed in the same
+manner as done for the compile of the dts source file in the Linux kernel
+build system ('#include' and '/include/' directives are processed).
+
+If two DTx are provided, the resulting dts source files are diffed.
+
+If DTx is a directory, it is treated as a DT subtree, such as
+ /proc/device-tree.
+
+If DTx contains the binary blob magic value in the first four bytes,
+ it is treated as a binary blob (aka .dtb or FDT).
+
+Otherwise DTx is treated as a dts source file (aka .dts).
+
+ If this script is not run from the root of the linux source tree,
+ and DTx utilizes '#include' or '/include/' then the path of the
+ linux source tree can be provided by '-s SRCTREE' or '-S' so that
+ include paths will be set properly.
+
+ The shell variable \${ARCH} must provide the architecture containing
+ the dts source file for include paths to be set properly for '#include'
+ or '/include/' to be processed.
+
+ If DTx_1 and DTx_2 are in different architectures, then this script
+ may not work since \${ARCH} is part of the include path. Two possible
+ workarounds:
+
+ `basename $0` \\
+ <(ARCH=arch_of_dtx_1 `basename $0` DTx_1) \\
+ <(ARCH=arch_of_dtx_2 `basename $0` DTx_2)
+
+ `basename $0` ARCH=arch_of_dtx_1 DTx_1 >tmp_dtx_1.dts
+ `basename $0` ARCH=arch_of_dtx_2 DTx_2 >tmp_dtx_2.dts
+ `basename $0` tmp_dtx_1.dts tmp_dtx_2.dts
+ rm tmp_dtx_1.dts tmp_dtx_2.dts
+
+ If DTx_1 and DTx_2 are in different directories, then this script will
+ add the path of DTx_1 and DTx_2 to the include paths. If DTx_2 includes
+ a local file that exists in both the path of DTx_1 and DTx_2 then the
+ file in the path of DTx_1 will incorrectly be included. Possible
+ workaround:
+
+ `basename $0` DTx_1 >tmp_dtx_1.dts
+ `basename $0` DTx_2 >tmp_dtx_2.dts
+ `basename $0` tmp_dtx_1.dts tmp_dtx_2.dts
+ rm tmp_dtx_1.dts tmp_dtx_2.dts
